Default 50NL, Totally lost with AA

Only been at the table for a few hands. Villain seems to be open limping a bit.


Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.25/$0.50 Blinds - 5 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

SB: $54.75
BB: $50.05
UTG: $90.70
Hero (CO): $49.75
BTN: $53.65

Preflop: Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (5 Players)
UTG calls $0.50, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.50</font>, 3 folds, UTG calls $2.00

Flop: ($5.75) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $4.00</font>, UTG calls $4.00

Turn: ($13.75) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $9.00</font>, UTG calls $9.00

River: ($31.75) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">UTG bets $28.50</font>, Hero ???

Just dont get what he's calling me with on the flop, 88, overpair, underpair. No clue whats going on here. Should I really be folding this against your average 50nl player?

Yes, this is an easy fold IMO.

Could be a flush draw on the flop and he's trying to take the pot down on the river?

At 50NL, you rarely see a bluff this large on the river (when no prior aggression has been shown). Donks like to bluff their missed draws with 1/3-2/3 the pot. Betting almost the full pot here seems like he wants to get value for his big hand. If we had a better read on villain, this would be an easier decision.

It's a small pot on the turn and there is too much money behind to really be trying to get it all-in. Just check behind on the turn and call up to a pot size bet. If you don't have the SPR to be commit, pot control is your friend.

Do we call a pot size bet if a third spade hits?
